What income do I need to show for 2025 when I have only one W-2 for $8,000

You need to enter all of your 2025 W-2's on the same tax return.   If you lost a W-2, contact the employer and ask for another copy.   Call them, email them, text them, snail mail them or go in person---but get a copy.    ALL of your 2025 income must be entered on the same tax return.  And...any refundable child-related credit like earned income credit and additional child tax credit is based on how much you earned from working, so if you do not enter all of your income, your refund will be affected.
